Pamela M. Barnes, 62, of Franklin, passed away on Tuesday, September 15, 2020 at UPMC Shadyside in Pittsburgh. Born December 8, 1957 in Franklin, she was the daughter of Lewis "Dick" R. and Patricia E. (McKinley) Frantz. She was a graduate of Cranberry High School.

She was also member of the Heckathorn United Methodist Church in Seneca. Pam would have liked everyone to know she was forever grateful for all the care and love she received from everyone over the years. In addition to her father, Pam will be forever remembered by her two brothers, Lewis R. Frantz, III of Franklin, and Raymond A. Frantz (Kathy) of Greenville; her two sisters, Deborah S.
